Why?   To install the modules.    When?  After you built them.  :-)

Typical kernel build/install steps

make menuconfig			# select config options
make dep				# generate dependencies
make bzImage			# build kernel
make modules			# build modules
make modules_install		# install modules (must be root)
make install				# install kernel (must be root)
